How would you survive if, in true Romero style, the dead came back to life to fed on the living?

First off if you see a zombie and think you can run away, congrats on being dumb! If you see a zombie I guarantee you will be seeing more of them very soon. They spread quicker than Jar-Jar hatred due to the surprisingly large number of stupid people. Here's the low-down:

Have a car at the ready with a trunk full of zombie killing goodness. Trunk should include at least one of the following:

* Handgun preferably something with a lot of impact, if its a choice between high caliber and number of rounds, go with something that will tear the head off rather then just creating small holes which the zombie will use for increased speed due to wind resistance no longer playing a factor.......speed hole zombies.

* Shotgun, regular long neck or sawed off, just be sure you can hold and shoot it without falling over. For those of you who can't aim.

* Extra Ammo, we have all seen it. Some guy doing really well, that is until you here the click click. Side point, don't throw the gun at a zombie. They don't feel it anyway. hang on to it and maybe if you live long enough you can have a nice reminder.

* Something you don't see too often. Get yourself a nice sword. Even a cheap knock off will do. Just something you can swing fast and not hurt yourself. No chainsaws. They are heavy and not very gas efficient. Sorry Evil Dead fans, but hey, none of us are Bruce Cambell enough to pull that off. I recommend a katana, with a machete for backup.. "Blades never need to be reloaded."

Now that you have a nice anti-zombie kit, put something in the car with you. Just in case you get stuck inside and surrounded. You don't deserve this advice if you're dumb enough to get surrounded while inside your car. Try some of these:

* Baseball bat, wooden for that nice crack, or Aluminum for a lovely ping.

* Another Handgun, these are essential for those who want to see the sun again.

Lastly the most important thing to arm yourself with is COMMON SENSE. That's right, its the one thing separating us from them. Think we're better than them. Try sitting at a bus stop in any major city, hard to believe that drooling stinky, festering pile in the corner isn't a zombie, isn't it. If you lack common sense and are prone to saying things like "Ow, that's hot!" or "Where's the last place I remember seeing it." or even "Mouey, me love you! Mesa Jar Jar Binks!" Get some smart friends and hope they don't enact operation human shield when the zombies charge.

If my wife and boy were still alive, then I would break into the local gun shop (I hate guns, but this is a crisis) then I would take them back to my work. We have a triple baricaded Command Center with our own power generators good for almost a month if we aren't running our production line.

The place has 3 Kitchens stocked with food.

If my family was already dead, I would find a great car and drive until I got to the Grand Canyon.... Then drive off. :)

A bitter sweet question! My own dear ones would be there among the returning dead: so, possibly can make an army of body guards for myself and my near and dear ones (alive&kicking ones!), using their love&affection (!), and maybe, start a weird kind of war among the dead ones, the hungry ones, literally a bloodshed! hey, this seems to be a good theme for a hitchcock or night syamalan movie, by itself: why not toss it up!

Find shelter, food, water and hunt the walking dead during the day. Either shooting them in the head or driving a wooden stake in 'em. No mercy! I might even hold up in a shopping center.

Grab the gun and Land Rover and burn rubber to my boat moored about three miles away. Then sail for the Channel Islands (Sark), and hole up there- the island is small but is a natural fortress. I could last indefinitely. Want to come?

Feed them those who couldn't run as fast as me......actually

a boat to the north pole would be the way to go...they would freeze. then gather forces of the living to exterminate the dead threat and restore civilization with me as ruler(Ha Ha).

or the Skyscraper thing.....hole up in a wal-mart.

Guns, MRE's and an island in the middle of the nearby lake.

join the living dead

I would equip myself with salt - easy!

Apparently they recover their past personality and become aware of their state, immediately returning to the grave....

...or something like that.....so, where's that salt shaker?

Interesting question, I'll get back to you on this later. I 'll have to have a good think about that one.
